And the Facebook panic starts!!

My FB and Twitter feeds are all full of "OMG THE WORLD IS ENDING - FACEBOOK CHANGED!!!" statuses. As if we all haven't survived the 12,000 other times that Facebook has changed.
I like the changes. I just have to ride out the next week or so until everyone just gets over it already!

Re: And the Facebook panic starts!!
I'm really not a fan of them. I now have a mini-feed to the right of my regular feed. Why? The feed itself seems to be having a problem - people are saying that theirs is jumping around as they post, and I've noticed that a few times as well. I don't need to see in my feed if one of my friends likes someone else's status.
They seem like really unnecessary changes.
The mini news feed for me is showing me all friends - my "regular" news feed is showing me "friends I most interact with" (which is the setting I have it on).
Eh, it's just a matter of time before we all become accustomed to it. I can't even remember what the original Facebook looked like! LOL!!
I was so confused this morning when I logged on FB.
I'm still confused, but I rarely do anything on FB but chat and post statuses, so I'm not too worried about it.
I hate the change. I cant even be on my page without it going up and down while I'm trying to read/post. They need to leave things alone.
ETA: I'm not panicing about it though, I just don't like not being able to use it.
I haven't seen panic, just people pissed that they changed it yet again when the old way was just fine. It's very difficult for me to navigate and I think a lot of the changes are pointless. For example, I don't care if my friends comment on other status updates. Yet FB now thinks I need to know this and tells me in the right hand corner of the screen.
I think it's just like if you were to come home and someone painted all of the walls in your house hot pink. It would probably take you a long while to get used to it and you would probably be walking around saying, "WTF! Why did you paint the walls? They were just fine before!"
2 years, 2 surgeries, 2 clomid fails, 2 IUIs, 1 loss, IVF #1 - 10/25/10 = BFP!, DS is now 3.5yrs!
TTC #2 - 6/12 surgery #3, FET #1 & 1.2 = BFN, 12/2012 FET #2 = BFP! DD is 1.5 yrs!
Surprise! 12/16/14 BFP, loss #2 12/31/14
I can't wait for the "im getting a divorce" post in 5 years or so because your husbands were fed up with your disgusting chair asses from playing on the knot all day and getting fired 4-5 times for not doing any work. you guys are all winners!! ~ Laur929
Yeah, no, it's not about panic. It's about crappy decisions that make it more difficult to see status updates, etc.
I really don't need FB to decide for me what I'll find "interesting" or not. I'm on often enough that I can scroll down to where I left off. This morning alone, there are at least 10 updates from friends I interact with all the time that are not showing in my newsfeed at all. Sorry guys, FB doesn't think you're interesting enough for me, lol.
(Yes I just quoted myself)
Andplusalso, it keeps logging me off.
All of this. Plus, I don't like reading what other people are saying about the statuses or links of people that I don't know. And I don't need other people knowing what links and statuses I'm commenting on. Too much.
All of this... I'm not panicked just freaking annoyed. As soon as I get used to the last set of changes they change it again.
